FROM A JACK TO A KING
C
From a jack to a king,
Adim G7 Am7
From loneliness to a wedding ring
G7 Dm7
I played an ace and I won a queen
G7 C
And walked away with your heart
From a jack to a king
With no regrets I stacked the cards last night
And lady luck played her hand just right
To make me king of your heart
C7 F F#dim C
For just a little while I thought I might lose the game
Am Em Am D7 G7
Then just in time I saw the twinkle in your eye
From a jack to a king
From lonliness to a wedding ring
I played an ace and I won a queen
You made me king of your heart
